Chapter 179 The Truth



but,

Want to be a kept man,

It's not that simple, after all.

Although the roof of the main city was full of cracks, it did not collapse.

Shen Ling stood in front of the bounty board.

His eyes began to look increasingly lost again.

The system in Gu Mu's mind suddenly said: [Mission revoked. Several people in the Great World used divine power to inject into this world, allowing it to continue operating normally.]

Sure enough, in the system tasks section, the original tasks and rewards turned gray, and the word "invalid" appeared next to them.

Meanwhile, the cracks in the roof of the main city gradually stopped spreading.

Shen Ling is like a worn-out doll that has lost its soul.

He stood there blankly in front of the bounty poster.

She lost the memory of that brief moment.

It's as if she lost all her memories of her past after she came into this world.

After all, her enemies are everyone in the world.

When everyone works together to deal with her alone, even if Shen Ling is powerful, immortal, and indestructible, she will still suffer losses.

Gu Mu kept his consciousness overseeing the scene of the main city.

Although I didn't succeed in becoming a kept man.

But at least, just now the system faced the threat of the world's destruction.

I had no choice but to reveal some of the truths of the world to him.

Shen Ling's actions just now also reminded Gu Mu of some fragments hidden deep in his memory.

...

Perhaps, in that very first life,

He and Shen Ling were originally a couple.

However, Gu Mu was betrayed by the person he trusted most and was besieged and killed by the masters of the Great World.

Before he died, Shen Ling rushed to his side.

They accompanied him on his final journey.

After Gu Mu's death,

Shen Ling defies the entire world to avenge Gu Mu.

Because Shen Ling is immortal, those people suppressed her and, in order to make her give up the idea of ​​avenging Gu Mu, they wanted her to undergo trials and become a heartless and ruthless person.

That's how this world came to be.

As for why Gu Mu, who clearly died, was reborn on Earth and then traveled to this world, it remains a mystery.

Gu Mu watched as Shen Ling gradually became confused.

I suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

At first, he thought that this world was created to nurture the female protagonist and make her stronger.

But it turns out...

It wasn't to make her stronger, but to make her more ruthless.

That's why she had to watch her trusted family members die, and then see them living happily right in front of her, which made her start to doubt the world.

That's why, after Shen Ling fell in love with him, he was forced to kill Shen Ling's father and brothers.

Before...

Gu Mu believed that the mission of this world was at least for Shen Ling's good.

But now I realize,

This world has always been their enemy, and that has never changed.

“From now on, I will not follow the rules of this world. I have my own rules, Gu Mu.”

Gu Mu clenched his fist.

Knowing the truth about this world is not necessarily a bad thing.

The spirit that lost that moment of memory,

Looking at the bounty list,

A chilling smile curled at the corner of his lips: "Lord of Hidden City... I will definitely find out who you are."

A tiny insect crawled out of Chen Ling's eye and down her face.

Then climb up to the bounty list.

Although Gu Mu didn't know what kind of insect it was,

But as you can guess, this insect is probably something similar to modern surveillance.

Perhaps after years of nurturing, it has become one with Shen Ling's eyes.

No matter who passes by the bounty list, Shen Ling can see them.

only,

Shen Ling was unaware that Gu Mu was the city lord of Hidden City.

All of this was a trap set for Chen Ling.

Therefore, Gu Mu paid special attention to everything about Shen Ling, and all of this fell into Gu Mu's eyes.

After Shen Ling left the main city mansion...

After walking a few steps,

He looked back again.

From afar,

She saw the cracks in the main city gate.

In the eyes,

A hint of doubt flashed across his face.

As if remembering something but unable to grasp it, he frowned slightly and finally left the main city.

...

When Shen Ling appeared at Kun Ning Palace and saw Gu Mu, she was startled.

A hint of panic flashed across his usually aloof and expressionless face.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing here?" There was a hint of panic in Shen Ling's voice.

After all, she just came back.

In Gu Mu's view, it must have appeared out of thin air.

"It's been a long time since I last saw you. I didn't know Ling'er knew magic. Did you learn this skill of making people disappear from sight when you were a child?" Gu Mu asked with a half-smile.

Shen Ling knew some secrets about Gu Mu and the Lord of Yin City. Since Gu Mu had seen it, she knew she couldn't hide it from him, so she could only say, "Your Majesty, I believe that the assassination attempt on Your Majesty that day was related to the Lord of Yin City. I only went to Yin City."

"What did you find?" Gu Mu asked seriously.

Although he and the Lord of Hidden City are the same person, in Shen Ling's eyes, the Lord of Hidden City is a powerful and mysterious existence. Shen Ling is willing to go to Hidden City because she is risking her life for Gu Mu.

Gu Mu looked at Ling'er like this,

Then he recalled the fragments of memory he had obtained in the Hidden City.

Although there were many misunderstandings between him and Ling'er in this life.

But Ling'er will always be the one who is willing to give everything for him, even if it means going against the whole world; that has never changed.

Gu Mu pulled Shen Ling close and embraced her.

He stroked her beautiful hair with his hand.

Feeling the girl's soft body temperature and touch,
